Chapter 1263: Chapter 953: Arrival of the Imperial Mountain Quasi-Emperor

Dragon-Riding Sect.

Meeting Hall.

The entire hall was silent. Before the Imperial Mountain Quasi-Emperor, seated in the place of honor, spoke, no one else in the hall dared to utter a word.

After a long while, the Imperial Mountain Quasi-Emperor finally broke the silence: “I presume you have all heard about the discovery of the Great Emperor’s Tomb.”

“I intend to personally lead you to the Chaotic Star Sea, to seek out the Great Emperor’s Tomb.”

Upon hearing this, those present immediately exclaimed: “Thank Honorable!”

The Imperial Mountain Quasi-Emperor glanced over everyone present, and then addressed Wu Peng beside him, “Wu Peng, go ahead and tell us all the intelligence you have.”

Wu Peng respectfully said: “Yes, Honorable.”

Wu Peng then reported: “Our people have discovered a star domain near the Imperial Mountain Star Region that has been erased from the star maps. It appears as a Dark Zone from the outside, thus no one has ever set foot in it.”

As Wu Peng was going to continue, he was interrupted by the Imperial Mountain Quasi-Emperor, “If it looks like a Dark Zone from the outside, then how did you discover the Chaotic Star Sea?”

Upon seeing a Dark Zone, people will inevitably feel fear and not dare to enter. Without entering, how could one discover the Chaotic Star Sea hidden within the Dark Zone?

Faced with this question, Wu Peng coolly responded, “Replying to Honorable, a cultivator escaped from the Chaotic Star Sea. The initial intelligence about the Chaotic Star Sea came from that cultivator.”

The Imperial Mountain Venerable inquired: “Where is that cultivator now?”

Wu Peng answered: “When we sent disciples into the Chaotic Star Sea to search for the Great Emperor’s Tomb, we took that cultivator with us. Unfortunately, we didn’t anticipate the presence of a Saint Realm powerhouse in the Chaotic Star Sea, and all our disciples sent for scouting were killed, including that cultivator.”

Wu Peng directly took all the credit for discovering the Chaotic Star Sea, as far as he is concerned, the Canghai Sect was just a small force that could be extinguished with ease. By now, it was probably gone, and from this point on, aside from a few high-ranking members of the Dragon-Riding Sect, no one else would know that it was the Canghai Sect that first discovered the Great Emperor’s Tomb.

For the force that discovered the Great Emperor’s Tomb, there will be a great merit. When the time comes, the Imperial Mountain Venerable would surely allow them to claim more treasures or inheritances, or perhaps reward them with something.

Hearing that the cultivator had been killed, the others pretty much understood that the first discoverer of the Great Emperor’s Tomb was probably not the Dragon-Riding Sect. However, they did not care about this detail.

Since the man was dead, there was no witness to dispute the claim, and speaking more was pointless. Since the Great Emperor’s Tomb has already been found, the urgent task is to go to the Chaotic Star Sea and unlock the Great Emperor’s Tomb.

At this moment, the Imperial Mountain Quasi-Emperor asked: “Which layer of the Saint Realm does the cultivator in the Chaotic Star Sea belong to?”

The Imperial Mountain Quasi-Emperor worried inside that a Super Force from the cosmos had discovered the Great Emperor’s Tomb. If the other party belonged to a Super Force, even though he was a Quasi-Emperor, he would not compete with them for the Great Emperor’s Tomb.

Treasures inspire greed, but one must be alive to claim them.

Wu Peng replied: “We don’t know. The people we sent to scout the Chaotic Star Sea were of the Saint Realm Second Layer, and before the secondary body could send back a message, the connection between it, the main body, and the Divine Soul was severed.”

The Imperial Mountain Quasi-Emperor pondered for a moment. To be able to use a spatial lockdown to enclose the entire space, and to also seal a Saint Realm Second Layer’s Divine Sense within, the person’s Cultivation State must be at least above Saint Fifth Realm.

If the other party is merely a cultivator around Saint Fifth Realm, they wouldn’t be able to cause much turmoil in front of him, the Quasi-Emperor.

Let alone the Saint Fifth Realm, even if the other party is a Quasi-Emperor, he has the power to fight. However, the issue lies in whether there is a Super Force backing the other party.

If there is an Emperor Level existence behind the other party, even if he could kill the opponent, he wouldn’t dare to make a move lightly.

After pondering for a moment, the Imperial Mountain Quasi-Emperor said, “Now that we have a basic understanding of the Chaotic Star Sea, let’s set out for it three days from now.”

The tomb of the Great Emperor holds immense allure for anyone, the longer the delay, the more likely it is to draw the attention of the super forces.

Furthermore, the prohibitions of the Chaotic Star Sea have dissipated, and existences at the Emperor Level might discover it.

They must seize the time and get hold of the treasures and inheritance from the Great Emperor’s tomb before certain Great Emperors discover the Chaotic Star Sea.

Upon hearing the words of the Imperial Mountain Quasi-Emperor, excitement ignited among everyone present; they were finally about to set out for the Chaotic Star Sea.

Just the thought of the treasures and inheritance within the Great Emperor’s tomb filled their hearts with indescribable excitement.

Three days later, the Imperial Mountain Quasi-Emperor led the major forces of the Imperial Mountain Domain Star Region towards the Chaotic Star Sea. During this time, people did not notice that the Canghai Sect had been annihilated; after all, everyone’s attention was focused on the Great Emperor’s tomb. Who would care about the affairs of other sects?

Moreover, one less sect meant one less competitor for them; all the major forces would rather have fewer forces heading to the Chaotic Star Sea.

Meanwhile.

In the Thousand Ren World, Jinluan Hall.

Lu Chen lay back on Nangong Yuehua’s Phoenix Chair, while Nangong Yuehua herself was straddling over him, her Phoenix Robe half-open, revealing her fair shoulders.

Lu Chen watched the empress with misty starry eyes and smiled, “You are becoming more and more unrestrained.”

Since Lu Chen had come in, he had barely done anything; it was all Nangong Yuehua’s own initiative.

Nangong Yuehua let out a light sigh and said nothing. What used to feel like humiliation no longer bothered her after spending more time with Lu Chen.

For her, being intimate with Lu Chen was part of cultivation; she had nothing to hide. Moreover, this method of cultivation was much faster than practicing alone. Doing it once in a while could accelerate the improvement of her cultivation state.

Just then, Bai Qingqing appeared in the hall, “Your Majesty, the Imperial Mountain Quasi-Emperor has set out with the various forces of the Imperial Mountain Star Domain!”

Hearing this, Lu Chen casually said, “Finally, they have come. If they hadn’t, I was contemplating visiting the Imperial Mountain Star Domain myself.”

After hearing Bai Qingqing’s words, Nangong Yuehua stopped her movements, and Lu Chen playfully slapped her buttocks, “Why stop?”

Nangong Yuehua’s delicate body trembled slightly, and before she could speak, Lu Chen continued, “Even if they have set out, it will take some time before they can reach the outskirts of the Thousand Ren World.”

Nangong Yuehua replied, “I…hmm… understand.”

Nangong Yuehua then resumed her own business, while Lu Chen told Bai Qingqing, “Have the patrolling people keep an eye on the edge of the Chaotic Star Sea. Alert me instantly upon sighting any Immortal Boats from the Imperial Mountain Domain.”

Bai Qingqing said, “Yes, Your Majesty.”

With the words falling, Bai Qingqing left the hall, and Lu Chen continued to aid Nangong Yuehua, the empress, in her cultivation.

Days went by and eventually, the Imperial Mountain Quasi-Emperor and the forces of the Imperial Mountain Domain arrived at the outskirts of the Thousand Ren World.

Seeing the life world of the Thousand Ren World, the cultivators from the major forces of the Imperial Mountain Domain became veritably excited.
